RE: In defense of the flag wars
I skimmed through the numerous comments and couldn't find one instance of countering flag and I believe that is a very viable solution. Tying it to a ratio of 2:1 allows people to counteract flagging and affect the reputation of the flagger if it is perceived as abusive. By making a piggyback rule to both flagging and counter flagging people couldn't flag or counter flag excessively. The buttons could be greyed out but I believe they should be allowed to piggyback without effect simply to show support.
Yeah it wasn't cancelled here on the blog. It appears to have occurred in some internal debate perhaps between Steemit, Inc. and the Witnesses... I'm not sure I was not involved, I just read Dan saying it was voted against.
